1.1  Update, Please!

1. Remember, it is up to you to either add or let us know if you need an animal added to this page. You can request for Leadership to do this for you by providing the necessary information in our maintenence thread.
2. Please keep the total word count of your description below 150 words. If you need more space, use a template, or, your personal Wiki page. This page is only meant to be a brief catalog of your companion animal.
3. This list is intended for current Salsola Proper members. If your character leaves Salsola, or is placed on NPC status and moved to the Salsolan Trading Outpost, their animals will be removed from this list. Make sure to keep your own copy of the information you put here in case it is thus removed.
4. Please note that most of the art made for the below animals is done for fun, and as a courtesy, by Alaine. They are done in her own free time, for no cost, and under no duress. If the animal is added to this page, there is a chance it could eventually receive art at Alaine’s convenience! However, this art is done for 'Souls and Salsolan use only. Please do not use it on any other sites. Please do not modify it in any way. It may be used on your character's personal wiki page and in their on-boards pages, but, please note, if your character permanently leaves Salsola, it may be requested that you cease using the artwork.
5. You do not need to fill in the About section if you have information available elsewhere about your animals on the Wiki. Just provide the link to the appropriate page instead, as it's generally easier to update in the long run.
6. Animals are listed by owner's rank + alphabetical order!
